Presenting his new interpreter... Will Ireton

"Ireton's journey into the world of baseball began in Tokyo, Japan on December 21, 1988. Born the son of a Japanese-American father, and a Spanish-Filipina mother, his family moved to Hawaii when he was 15, and he spent his teenage years at Mid-Pacific Institute in Honolulu where he played for the high school baseball team."

I hope he is not going to mess this up.
